Excellent bird observation footage in Singapore. But you missed the opportunity to see the Buffy Fish Owl while visiting Hampstead Wetlands Park.

Nice work - especially enjoyed the strange (to me) calling Tit-babbler, the sturdy and beautiful Stork-billed K/F, and both Owls, each seeming to demand the respect due their position. Thank you!!

That is one of the best things about going birding in a new country, nearly every bird is new. Singapore is wonderful not just for the wild life but the food, and attractions are excellent too. Just be prepared for the humidity!

@@naturephotographychallenge yes that is how long we were there. One key thing to remember with the humidity is make sure your camera gear is acclimated each morning if left in the Aircon overnight. You could get up to an hour of foggy lenses if not careful! Had same problem up in Cape York.

It's a very nice Birds video recorded. But at time 3:20, the intermediate Egret has a pair of yellow legs. It looked more like Pacific Reef-Heron (white pattern)
